Best Waterford Hotels

Mention Waterford, and crystal comes to mind. Famous for its medieval and maritime history and stunning cut glass, Waterford is the classic Irish visitor destination. With its relaxed, small Irish town atmosphere and pretty setting on the River Suir, you can certainly get an authentic Irish experience here without jostling with crowds of other tourists. Besides it’s one of the sunnier corners of this famously wet isle.
